At approximately 2:42 a.m. on Sunday, January 9, 2022, the Arlington Police Department responded to a single vehicle rollover in the eastbound lanes of I-20 near Park Springs Boulevard.
Investigators believe a 2004 Nissan Titan suddenly went off the roadway and struck a guardrail, causing the pickup to flip and land on its side. The driver of the pickup, a 34-year-old male, was ejected from the vehicle. He was pronounced deceased at the scene.
A 24-year-old male passenger was transported to an area hospital with non-life threatening injuries.
Investigators do not believe either of the occupants were wearing seatbelts at the time of the crash and they have not ruled out the possibility that alcohol was a factor.
The Tarrant County Medical Examiner’s Office will identify the deceased once next of kin have been notified.
